Zubereitung
First, make the streusel:
- Preheat your oven to 180 °C (conventional) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 100 g Cold butter, 150 g All-purpose flour, 70 g Ground almonds, 80 g Brown sugar, 1 pinch Salt, 1 Vanilla sugarAdd all of the streusel ingredients to the mixing bowl and blend for 10 sec / Speed 5.
- Spread the streusel mixture onto your prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and perfectly crispy.
- Let cool completely, then crumble into smaller pieces if desired.
Pro-Tip: If you're making these ahead of time, store the fully cooled streusel in an airtight container to keep them super crunchy!
For the Apple Compote:
- 5 Apples, 30 g Brown sugar, 1 tbsp Cornstarch or ½ packet vanilla pudding mix, 3 tbsp Lemon juicePeel, core, and dice the apples, then toss them into the mixing bowl. Mix the vanilla pudding powder (or cornstarch) with the water in a small bowl, then add it to the mixing bowl along with the remaining compote ingredients. Cook for 7 min / 100 °C / Reverse / Speed 1 until tender. Transfer to a bowl and let cool.
For the Cinnamon Cream:
- 200 ml Heavy whipping cream, 50 g Granulated sugar, 1 tsp Ground cinnamon, 1 tsp Vanilla extract or 1 packet vanilla sugar, 250 g Low-fat quarkAdd the heavy cream, sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract to the mixing bowl and whip until stiff peaks form—about 20 sec / Speed 10 (or until you hear the blades spinning freely). Transfer the quark to a separate medium bowl, add the whipped cream, and gently fold everything together with a rubber spatula.
Pro-Tip: Make sure your heavy cream and mixing bowl are ice-cold! If you can, pop the mixing bowl in the freezer for a few minutes beforehand, or rinse it thoroughly with cold water.
Layer the Desserts:
- Start by adding a generous layer of crisp streusel to the bottom of your dessert glasses. Pipe or spoon in a layer of cinnamon cream, followed by a layer of cooked apple compote. Finish with another layer of crunchy streusel on top. Chill in the fridge until you're ready to serve!
Notes
This dessert is great to make ahead of time—just cover and store in the fridge until ready to serve.
